Sightseeing in Sydney
Sydney’s most famous attraction has got to be the Sydney Opera House which
was opened in 1973 and has since been the most photographed building
in Sydney. Guided tours are available.
We recommend a visit to Pylon Tower which is home to a fascinating exposition
of the history of Sydney Harbour Bridge. Open daily.
The Rock, Sydney’s ‘Outdoor Museum’, is the oldest
part of the town and home to various cafes, restaurants and shops.
We also recommend a visit to Darling Harbour with the Chinese Garden
of Friendship. The garden, with its lagoons, lotus plants and fish, was
created as a present to Sydney by its twin town Guandong.
Strand Arcade, named after its famous model in London, is Sydney’s
centre for fashion and design. It is home to the most exclusive designer
labels and jewellers, beauty salons and restaurants.
For an exciting night out we recommend a visit to Kings Cross, Sydney’s
former red light district.

Exam Courses
At our language school in Sydney, we offer the following exam preparation courses: Preparation for the Cambridge Certificate (FCE, CAE) and IELTS.
Please note:
- You can only take the courses if your English is at intermediate level (FCE: B1; CAE: B2; IELTS: B1). Enrolment on the preparation course is subject to a grading test before the course starts.
- The exams normally take place in the last week of the course, therefore we can only offer limited teaching in that week.
- You can complete your IELTS exam registration beforehand on the internet at www.ielts.org, where you can find the application form and further information.
- You must pay the exam fee while in Sydney. Please consult the table regarding how much the exam fee will cost.
- Cambridge Certificates: You will find dates of the written papers (papers 1-3) in the table. According to our previous experience, we have found that the oral exams (papers 4-5) mostly take place a week after the end of the course. which is why the prices may include an extra week’s accommodation. As it is possible that the dates may be postponed, we recommend that you opt for a flexible flight reservation.
